San Juan would make perfect sense. It has a great baseball following, produces a lot of players, has the fanbase, and they have security there (like the US military and such). I think it would be nice if the east coast teams actually had to travel once in a while. It might even things up a bit.

Or the assistant Web content editor at Sportsline that forced the readers to combine an opinion poll with one of the questions Canadians are bound by law to answer to win any contest up there.

I’d love for the team to be in San Juan, but it doesn’t seem economically viable.

CBS Sportsline Spin on Sports is running a current poll that asks: “If MLB were to expand, where will the first NON-North American franchise be located?”

The options in the poll are: Japan, Europe, Mexico, South America, and The Caribbean.

42% of their readers picked Mexico…. which last time I checked was firmly planted in NORTH AMERICA. That should tell you something about the intelligence level of CBS Sportsline readers. Of course they do have Gregg Doyel writing for them, so it sort of makes sense. You do have to be pretty much brain dead to make it through one of his inexplicably bad columns.
